Santa Cruz, March 30-31

I had never camped and surfed before this weekend, and I can't wait to do it again. Climbing is to Yosemite as Surfing is to Santa Cruz here in California, so it was nice to bring my shitty epoxy board out on some really nice waves. I managed to catch some good waves on Saturday at The Hook, and even got a few on Cori's more aggressive 7'6" board. Sunday wasn't as successful as a bigger swell and nice weather brought crowds to Pleasure Point. Along with a nice clean swell came crowds of obnoxious teenagers, but they mostly stayed out of our way, except Cori got her board run over by a little punk. I was bummed after leaving the water, but am excited to get back down there again.

About Me

I'm a visual effects artist and weekend warrior who slays moderate climbs and ski descents with reasonable frequency. My home away from San Francisco is in the Sierras, and as my friends can attest, I'm verifiably obsessed with my gear and outdoor pursuits. I've found that engaging stories aren't only born out of harrowing excursions by professionals living on the cutting edge . Great tales are a function of travels with quirky, hilarious, and introspective partners along with the mistrials of approaching, the terror, fatigue and calculation of ascending, and the elation of summiting.
